robin. south korea is saying this morning that north korea, just 25 or 30 miles from here, has moved one of its missiles to the east coast, a missile with considerable range. the moment of explosion is approaching. that's the looming threat this morning from north korea saying they have the final approval to launch, quote, merciless military strikes on the united states involving the possible use of cutting-edge nuclear weapons. >> some of the actions they've taken over the last few weeks present a real and clear danger and threat to the interests of certainly our allies. >> reporter: now the u.s. is matching those threats with strategic deployments. the missiles do not have the range to reach the u.s. mainland, but the u.s. is matching north korean threats with strategic deployments to the region. mobilizing an advance missile

defense system, the terminal high altitude area defense battery or thad. to protect guam and likely within range of that north korean missile. the thad system using truck interceptors. >> i don't want to be the secretary of defense who was wrong once. and warplanes including fighter jets, u2 spy plane and attack jets in the skies as part of a massive military exercise. this morning, including practice in case of a chemical weapons attack. north korea has one of the largest chemical weapons stockpiles in the world. of course, the biggest threat is a nuclear weapon or a missile. we asked the head of u.s. forces here in south korea whether the north koreans had a nuclear weapon they could put on a missile. he said, we are not certain, but we have to take the threat seriously. of course, if they did launch some sort of nuclear weapon, it

would be suicide for the north korean leader. george and robin? >> it sure would. okay, martha, thanks. more from our chief white house correspondent jonathan karl. jon, a delicate balancing act. they want to deter north korea, defend against the possible attack but have to be careful about provoking one too. >> reporter: that's right. no doubt that the white house is taking this very seriously. i am told the president is getting regular updates, not just on the north korean military developments but even the rhetoric coming out of north korea. but, george, the real goal right now is to try to turn the temperature down so while the u.s. has made it clear with those military maneuvers that they will respond to any attack coming from the north, they want to turn the temperature down now because the biggest danger is a miscalculation that could lead to war. >> and, you know, we've seen these cycles of bluster from north korea in the past. new factor here, though, is this new, young dictator, kim jong-un, and not much is known about him. >> well, that is exactly right.

we've certainly seen over the top rhetoric from his father. i mean year after year this happens in an effort to try to get stuff out of the international community but they don't know much about kim jong-un and the other fact here is the bottom line is north korea has made advances in their military. they've got a better missile program now. their nuclear program is certainly more advanced than it's ever been so there's a lot of uncertainty even though they see this as part of the typical pattern. >> successful test a couple months back, another one possibly coming later this month. jon karl, thanks very much. >> all right, george. to that high alert for law enforcement and new warnings about two armed and dangerous white supremacists targeting police. colorado authorities issuing a strong warning overnight and abc's pierre thomas has the latest. good morning, pierre. >> reporter: good morning, robin. today here in texas and across the country, some police are concerned that thugs have declared open season on public officials. >> officer safety bulletin,

after being wounded in a gun battle. motive unknown. another small town in tears. it's with a heavy heart that we come to you, lord. >> when high-profile crimes are committed, there's a tendency for people to want to copy them. >> reporter: so today security will be tight at a service honoring that slain prosecutor and his wife. robin. so incredibly sad. all right, pierre, thank you. >> we turn to josh elliott for other top stories developing. good morning, josh. good morning. we begin with the developing story overnight, deadly shooting at ft. knox in kentucky that forced the base to be locked down. an army civilian employee was killed in a parking lot after what appears to be a personal dispute. authorities want to question a possible suspect who may have fled on a motorcycle and the base has since been re-opened. it's being called the cursed carnival cruise ship, that cruise liner that stranded thousands in the gulf of mexico over the winter has now broken loose from its moorings in alabama and this morning, one worker is missing.

here's abc's matt gutman. >> reporter: this morning as many as five tugs are working to lasso the wayward carnival "triumph" adrift again. >> due to the high winds the carnival "triumph" broke its moorings, drifted over across the mobile ship channel, it had a small collision. >> reporter: a squall pounding the ship with 800 crew on board. and knocking it loose from the dock being repaired wednesday sending all of them on a terrifying ride downriver. brandon vikers watched the chaos unfold. >> the wind just came out of nowhere. i seen a couple of portalettes go flying by. >> reporter: that huge gash in the back of the ship after a bumper boat resting against the cargo ship. in a statement carnival cruise line said "all crew and contractors working on the crippled ship are accounted for." however, the storm that shoved the ship into mobile bay sent two other dockworkers into the water. for "good morning america," matt gutman, abc news, miami.

>> thank you, matt. >> it is getting harder to find a job. private companies created but 158,000 jobs last month, a sharp drop from the 237,000 they created in february. it was, in fact, the slowest month for hiring since last fall. even mcdonald's getting pickier about who it hires. one requiring a college degree and one year's experience for new cashiers. and president obama taking a pay cut. he's giving back some $20,000 of his $400,000 salary because he wants to show solidarity with government workers who face a furlough because of budget cuts. meanwhile, overnight lawmakers in connecticut approved what are being called the toughest gun laws in the country. they passed easily despite protesters packing the statehouse there. they include a ban on large capacity ammunition clips and mandatory background checks for all gun sales. and a somber anniversary this morning. today marks 45 years since the

assassination of dr. martin luther king on the balcony of a memphis hotel. remembrances and services honoring the civil rights icon are being held today across the country. and overseas, a dramatic scene. flames pouring out of a high-rise in russia. ten floors engulfed in flames. an electrical short circuit is being blamed. fortunately the building was empty at the time because it was still under construction. and finally, two of america's favorite companies are branching out today. facebook is announcing the new facebook phone. >> ooh. >> but even more intriguing, word that apple's new itv will come with a ring. >> wow. >> that turns your finger into a remote control. you can change the channel just by pointing. apple says it's about a year away from selling it which means we're all one year away from being superheroes, people. >> power! >> unite. >> that is complete chaos.

i'm thinking my whole family in bed, everybody has a ring. >> we'll grab a mirror until that happens. >> green lantern a year away from being out of a job. >> thank you josh. the latest on that basketball firestorm at rutgers. the coach caught on tape abusing his players was fired yesterday but that has not stopped the controversy. abc's gio benitez is on the story and higher-ups at rutgers now under fire too. >> reporter: so many are scratching their heads wondering why the university didn't do more before this video got out. this morning, the man at the center of the rutgers basketball scandal is without a job and speaking out. >> there's no explanation for what's on those films because there is no excuse for it. >> reporter: but now the question is should anyone else bear some responsibility for head coach mike rice's appalling behavior. >> [ bleep ]. >> reporter: rice was fired wednesday after abc's sister

network, espn, aired this video of rice exploding during practice, grabbing players, kicking them, even firing a basketball at one player's head. then there's the verbal abuse. the anti-gay slurs. >> [ bleep ]. i'm deeply sorry for the pain and the hardship i've caused. >> reporter: but rutgers knew about rice's behavior and that tape since november. the punishment back then, a three-game suspension, a $50,000 fine and he was ordered to attend anger management classes. >> i can't think of an argument that would be compelling enough to justify a suspension and a fine when ultimately a dismissal was decided upon. >> reporter: the university's athletic director tim pernetti apologized for waiting this long to fire the coach admitting "i was wrong." >> i don't think this is over for tim pernetti. the vast majority of administrators would have fired mike rice on the spot. >> reporter: parents of the players say it will take time to heal from this scandal.

forward austin johnson's mother says she feels guilty. >> i texted austin and say in some way i feel i might have failed you. if i had known the gravity i think i would have more strongly counselled him to leave. >> reporter: stacy williams tells me her son and teammates would talk about the coach's behavior but never complained. some said they were afraid to lose their scholarships. others simply thought it was part of that basketball culture. >> boy, that's the scariest part of all right there. thank you. >> still, the fact that they saw it four months ago. >> yeah, this one is not over. >> it's not over. >> a shock. but now to the latest on the desperate search for two teen hikers who vanished while hiking at a southern california forest. one of the hikers was found and rescued overnight. now the hunt for the other hiker has intensified and abc's abbie boudreau has the latest for us this morning. good morning, abbie. >> reporter: good morning, robin. it was a dramatic rescue

arias' parents, the remaining jurors will not see it, but you will. in the same interrogation room where their daughter did headstands while waiting to be questioned, jodi arias' parents learned she was about to be charged with murdering her ex-boyfriend. >> how are you doing? are you doing okay? >> not good, no. >> as good as can be expected, i guess. >> i feel like i'm going to puke. >> reporter: her mother sandy tells the detective heir daughter is troubled but still can't imagine she's capable of shooting and repeatedly stabbing travis alexander. >> did you have any suspicion at all that she had anything to do with his death. >> i asked her. i asked her. that's the first thing i asked her. she swore she did not go to arizona so, of course, i believed her. you know, but i questioned her about it. >> reporter: arias' father is even tougher in his assessment of his daughter. >> you know, she was a strange person because some -- you know, after she left the house she was just kind of acting a little

strange. >> reporter: they were recorded in the summer of 2008 just before arias was charged with first degree murder. now that she's on trial for her life, her mother is in the front row of the courtroom every day. her father has health problems and has only made it one week of this three-month trial. >> i would call it a domestically abusive relationship. >> reporter: this morning the jury will hear more from this psychotherapist hired by the defense claiming she was a battered woman who killed in self-defense and this witness believes her. wednesday she testified about a fight they had months before the murder. >> could you hold up your hand for us so we could see. >> reporter: that now infamous argument that ended with alexander breaking her finger. >> during this argument he grabs her, throws her to the floor. when she hits the floor she makes a sound and he says, basically don't act like that [ bleep ]. then he kicks her a second time and she's trying to block that kick and he kicks her finger and breaks it.

least get my team's minds on the right track, we could win this game and that's why i just told the team like we have to win this game. i kept repeating it and kept repeating it and they pulled through. >> reporter: louisville crushed duke by 22 points, a victory marked by raw emotion. when that first tear fell for you, what was going through your mind? >> the first tear fell when me and my girlfriend were actually watching the tribute of how they showed the game. i kind of felt like it was going to happen. i needed to get it out. i needed that cry and when i saw that video they just -- it was more so me crying tears of joy because i was so proud at just how they played. >> reporter: i understand you haven't seen it and you never will. >> never will. i kind of feel like if i see the video, it will just hold me back mentally from where i need to be trying to recover from this and the last thing i want is that if i'm trying to be on the basketball court again.

with the discovery of the real-life gates to hell. nice song. terrifying door to the underworld, archaeologists are revealing that a site in southwest turkey could be the real deal. dan harris is here with the story. >> happy to explain. we covered all sorts of dramatic finds in the show. many hotly contested. jesus' tomb. the remains of noah's arc and the gates of hell. the gates of hell have long figured prominently in myth logically minded tv shows and movies from "clash of the titans." >> gate to the underworld. kill medusa. >> reporter: to bucky the vampire slayer where the town of sunningdale is built on top of the hell mount. >> i'm not worried. >> reporter: now scientists say they discovered the entryway to the underworld or where the ancients considered it to be. if you're thinking it's a portal

like this, this is what is left of the gate. these ruins were once an elaborate temple built around a cave people believe led straight down into the depths of hell. back in 24 a.d., strabo wrote "this space is full of a vapor so misty and dense that one can scarcely see the ground, any animal that passes inside meets instant death" which is why these scientists put on gas masks for their work. it is an archaeological find thrilling enough for an "indiana jones" plot but this is not the first claim laid to satan's front door. in turkmenistan this crater is one of the other alleged gates to hell. easy to see why. the fire there has been burning more than 40 years but back to those ruins in turkey they covered up the entrance to the gates of hell which is perhaps for the best. we all remember what happened in "raiders of the lost ark" when they dug up those religious

artifacts of the dead. to use a loaded phrase all hell broke loose. sorry, i thought maybe i would deserve a ding for that one. there really are, by the way, lethal vapors coming out. it was sort of a tourist destination. they would visit and if they went close enough to the cave they would have visions and prophecies which modern science would explain it as them getting high off the fumes coming out of the cave. >> a whole other story. >> thanks, dan. all right, thank you. coming up, everybody, why michelle obama is having second thoughts about the bangs. oh, no. >> oh, no is right. also "play of the day." the best free kick that sam's ever seen. you're going to -- freeze it. just freeze it. suzy blrn. ♪ freeze frame freeze frame now freeze ♪ ♪

u.s. but there's no sign yet that kim jong-un's regime is preparing for any full-scale conflict. meanwhile, here at home new developments after that wave of attacks on law enforcement officials. this morning, police nationwide are being warned about two suspected white supremacists, james lohr and thomas guolee are thought to be associates of the man accused of killing the director of colorado's prison system, tom clements. meanwhile, there's been another attack on a law enforcement official. this time in west virginia. a sheriff was executed in his car. the suspect was wounded in a gun battle. no word yet on the motive. and a new warning about health care expenses in this country. a study out this morning finds the financial burden of caring for people with dementia has now surpassed that of heart disease or cancer. also, dementia cases are expected to double in the next 30 years. also this morning, researchers have found a link between baldness and your risk for heart attack.

the risk was especially high for men who started losing hair on the top of their heads first. doctors are trying now to determine exactly why. and some video to show you from tampa, florida. a tractor trailer, as you see here, went right off a bridge and into the water. initial reports indicate the driver did make it out and is okay. meanwhile, in atlanta, police shocked at this one. an suv drove through a guardrail and off a bridge plummeting some 50 feet to the ground striking a tree on the way down, but the car landed upright. all three people inside suffered only minor injuries. >> wow. here's diane sawyer with a preview of tonight's "world news." diane? >> good morning to you, josh. i love your motown morning, by the way. but i want to tell everyone what is coming up tonight on "world news," because it is an astounding true story of family survival. a family chased underground, forced to live in a cave for almost two years.

i'll say beef. >> beef? that's all he eats. >> i was going to say the word beef. >> he won't eat okra. >> okra. >> true. >> really? >> i saw somebody carrying that around before. >> little-known fact. the second one, everybody, is about something that makes george cry like a baby. >> what broadway musical makes george cry? >> "les mis." >> no. >> "cats." >> no. >> "annie." the sun will come out -- >> "the little mermaid." >> really. >> yeah, it was bad. he was crying. he was like, his leg, the voice, >> really? >> "little mermaid." >> really? >> yeah, i actually did. i was there with my 3-year-old and she was moved by it, as well. >> oh, george. >> she's 3, george. and you are -- >> you were moved by something. >> she was crying because her daddy was a heap. >> okra? is it the consistency or the texture? >> yeah, yeah. >> there are other things that you will want to know about

george, and for that you should go to dailyshot.yahoo.com. we cannot discuss them right here. >> a very, very funny show. >> yes. she is a great gal. and women don't have to deal with putting on a tie but i'm assuming it can be annoying. i don't know, which may be why a california designer introduced the zip-up tie. zip it up. perfect for the stylish guy on the go like you, george. hold on. hold on, let me just -- don't mess the hair. everybody, there you go. zip that right up. so the tie comes in three different sizes. two different colors. >> yeah. >> nice. >> that's a good look. >> really good. >> it's kind of ridiculous. >> a good look. >> it's kind of ridiculous. >> this is what you put underneath the rug in your basement. >> yeah, it's felt, and they're $65 and i don't -- >> they're $65? >> yeah. yeah. >> is that felt? >> we always like to bring you things first here in "pop news" and this is the first zip-up tie. >> get them while they last. >> get them while they last. they're selling like hotcakes and that is "pop news." thank you. thank you.

with that storm. in the west, it is nice and warm and i got to love vegas at about 84 degrees. salt lake city at about 74 right now. we could take some denver at 74. we'd take that, wouldn't we? we'd take it. >> we are live in times square. hey, parker, where are we going now? >> we're going inside to lara. >> wow. what a great crowd. thank you so much. here's a look at what's coming up on your "gma morning menu." an ex-"vogue" editor revealing

it is. i felt terrible. i felt very complicit to be part of that. >> reporter: clements was famously fired from the magazine in may of last year but she insists this is not a revenge novel of her 25 years at "vogue." >> it's honest and honesty is not bitterness. >> reporter: overnight the current editor in chief of "vogue" australia told abc news she can only speak on the magazine as it stands today and that "we are vocal ambassadors for the message of healthy body image." for "good morning america," diana perez, abc news, new york. >> some of those pictures are just so hard to look at. >> very hard. >> not pretty. >> huh-uh. next up in our "gma" heat index, michelle obama making headlines again for her bangs. yes, you would give me the hair story. they're a little more high maintenance than she expected, and she's not the only one who feels that way. abc's linsey davis has so much more. >> you were rocking bangs for a little bit. >> yeah, i know, but i'm going with the julius caesar look right now trying to bring that back. >> a degree of bangs. >> oh.

>> but michelle obama largely along with a return to the '60s as far as what's trending in fashion right now, they are both credited with putting the bang back in bangs and while there's some benefits to the face-framing fringe, more and more people are realizing the hairstyle is not without some fallout, but there is a new solution of sorts. it seems the first lady's hairdo -- >> she looks good. >> reporter: -- has suddenly become a hair don't. >> bangs are a day-by-day proposition. they're starting to grow out. it gets a little irritating. >> reporter: michelle obama's admission on "e.t." comes a few short weeks after her bangs made headlines. >> this is my mid-life crisis, the bangs. >> reporter: upstaging inauguration weekend. >> to address the most significant event of this weekend, i love her bangs. >> reporter: they even have their own twitter account. @michellesbangs. the first lady even tried downplaying her fringe on her most recent visit to "gma." >> no hotter topic. >> what? >> than your bangs. >> bangs. >> thank your bangs.

>> what bangs? >> reporter: but the first sign all was not going smoothly on the hair front came this weekend when her daughter malia was caught trying to fix her mother's hair, the bangs presenting a pesky problem that isn't just limited to the first family. dana tizio, a hairdresser who just got bangs cut into her own hair six weeks ago, is already starting to show signs of bang regret. >> i was happy for like the first week and then realizing that i have to do them every day, i think people don't realize the maintenance. >> bang regret is something that we have to consider as hairdressers. >> reporter: hairdresser to the stars, ted gibson warns bangs are a commitment but can create a spectacular look. >> bangs are super, super, super hot. >> you have a more narrow face and you have bangs that are a little wider, it makes you look a little sexier and gives flirtation and gives emphasis to the eyes. >> reporter: that may be what keeps kerry washington, kim kardashian and taylor swift going back for more bang for their buck, and speaking of bucks, you can get a faux fringe

that clips in for as little as $30. >> they are the hottest thing right now, and they are a great accessory to wear. >> reporter: guilt-free bangs without the commitment. that was the rational behind the butterfly bang bar. >> we wanted to take the fear away from cutting bangs so we basically said let's do something where someone could come in, experience the bangs in different styles and they will feel a lot more comfortable. >> reporter: which got me to thinking, maybe i should try to jump-start spring with a bang. >> and -- >> here's my new look. they did a bang-up job, don't you think. >> ding, ding. >> but at least with this, i can always take the bangs off, put them in my purse if i don't like it. no bang regret at all. and i have a new look. >> it was done during that story. >> two minutes. >> the guy just came out, snapped them in and combed them over and looks great. >> in all seriousness when you go bang, it's hard to go back. >> because you have to grow it out and it's a lot of work apparently every day. >> same way with guys when you all get bangs? >> i don't know. i don't.
